A picture from their wraparound porch - nothing like Southern Indiana for beautiful trees and rolling hills. At least in my humble opinion.
Sandy prepared us with buckets...
Then she led us out to the promised (raspberry) land...
Is that some tall corn or what?! It's field corn for their horses but we all know how good young field corn can be on the table!
Sandy provided instruction on the picking of the raspberries. I had to have a private tutorial with hands-on demonstration. But I eventually got it!
These are some long rows of raspberry bushes! 2 full rows - right in between the corn and the asperagus and lots of other good produce.
Patty bagged the first kill of the day!
Every bush and almost every branch had raspberries in every stage of growth - Sandy said she can pick twice a day. She picks the ones that have riped over night in the morning and then can pick the ones that ripened during the day in the evening. There were lots of them that would be ripe in just a few hours after we left!
Yum - excellent to freeze and eat this winter!
Thank you, Sandy and Charlie, for inviting us!!!
